chongyun hides his true personality behind layers of an calm but kind exterior. he forces himself to act in a polite manner to anyone, even if they do not deserve the respectful treatment. he treats everyone kindly and never acts outlandishly or overemotionally in the case it accidentally activates his extremely sensitive condition. he has a gullible side to him aswell. due to the fact he often isolates himself to train and become an exorcist worthy of inheriting the tianheng clan, it causes him to not be the best in a social situation. this is prominent especially when it comes to reading someone's nonverbal language without it being explicitly obvious. due to this, he often gets pranked on numerous times by his friends, especially by his best friend xingqiu. chongyun can be a bit meekish, especially when it comes to interacting with things that may activate his condition and cause chaos. he can never hold a heavy grudge against someone, in the case where it gets him riled up or upset thinking about it. when a client gets angered or accuses chongyun of scamming them because of his un-orthodox methods of exorcism, he cannot help but hold a calm expression and softly explain the situation, whether or not the client believes him in the end, chongyun cannot act out more than a calm explanation. well, unless he wishes to become erratic in his yang state. due to his condition, he hasn't really lived his life to the maximum, instead spending majority of his lifetime training to be a proper exorcist. deep down, chongyun is bitter about this fact that his birth condition prevents him from doing so much, but he believes that if he trains hard enough, he can overcome his sensitive yang energy. although, progress has been slow, since he can still barely stomache one jueyun chili without his face flaring up all red and his behavior becoming all erractic.
whenever he has his condition active, or he's in his yang state, chongyun overgoes much changes. almost acting like a drunken man, chongyun is loud, wild, rambunctious, and very extroverted. a complete do-over from the chongyun that everyone else knows. he is overdone in every aspect, overdramatic, overly friendly, overly loud, overwhelming, etc. although he causes lots of chaos in this state, many people have admitted to preferring chongyun this way, the way he truely is and would be if not for his positive yang controlling every aspect of his life. chongyun himself is very shy about his yang state, since he rarely recalls what happens, he usually has to get the story from someone else. which always causes chongyun to get embarrassed about what he did. always offering to clean up the mess he made when he was in this state or trying to apologize to all that bore witness to the person that chongyun can become when exposed to the slightest of heat. factors that can activate his yang state are listed as follows. heat, strong emotions, spicy foods, hot foods, wearing dark clothing, loud and abrasive music, blushing, hot springs, quarrels, temper problems, the sun, and much more. of course, this is not a personal preference on chongyun's part, if anything, he would like to embrace these things. but ultimately, he cannot. if the day ever came where he suddenly had a normal amount of yin and yang energy, however, he would almost immediately embrace all the things he missed out on due to his condition.
chongyun is extremely hardworking, often pushing himself too hard at times. he really only has one goal, rid the world of all evil spirits. but due to his condition that causes him to face obstacles everyday, it is an extremely hard goal to have. he can never truely exorcise a spirit, due to them all running away from him by just a feel of his intense positive energy. chongyun believes the wielding of a claymore, the heaviest weapon, could assist him in his training and make him more stronger. therefore declaring his favorable weapon type for combat. although he can pick up a claymore with ease and swing it around, it seems he's still not the best suited for spirit slaying yet... not with his overflow of yang energy. although his condition is a 100% effective way to rid a spirit, chongyun does not approve of it. believing that true exorcism is a skill that is learned by the best disciples. while chongyun's method of exorcism is just a birth defect that cannot be trained or honed like basic ways of exorcism. he views it as a "cheap trick" rather. since chongyun is a pure yang spirit, there is minimal to none yin energy in his soul. this basically means that chongyun is a pure soul with almost no bad intentions. he doesn't mean to harm anything that is not the least deserving, he tries to help all that he can without causing his condition to flare, and he has very high morals for everyone. he is honest and would never do anything intentionally offensive to someone. chongyun has black and white morals, believing that some actions are completely okay, while others are completely wrong. despite his pure-hearted actions, chongyun does this without a single smirk. due to his condition, he cannot even smile or play with children on the streets in fear that the emotions may cause him to enter his yang state. which is why he is seemingly emotionless at times, only with a soft, calm expression plastered on his face. due to his abundance of yang energy, positivity basically radiates off of him, sometimes causes changes in other people too, being around chongyun and his yang energy for a while may even make you act like a pure-hearted samaritan just like chongyun himself. that is how prominent his yang energy is.
